@Fluttershy1 sorry I wasn’t there last night. It was a heavy emotional processing day, needed an early night.

Sending you lots of hugs and love 💖🫂💖🫂. It sounds really rough for you right now. Depression does make getting out of bed feel like moving mountains. Do acknowledge the small things you do today considering how you feel. Even reaching out on here shows strength

It’s soo hard, I feel like a lost cause @lavenderhaze - I just wanna run

[lavenderhaze]

It's a big loss @Fluttershy1 and it will take time to grieve, but you're not a lost cause. I can hear how hard it is but you're not alone. Sending you lots of hugs ❤️

Have you tried contacting a counselling service?

I’ve shut myself off from my supports @lavenderhaze - it’s abit to overwhelming. Am safe

@creative_writer - it’s ok, sometimes you need time to yourself. I’m struggling, I’ve shut myself off from my supports. Am safe

[lavenderhaze]

I can understand that @Fluttershy1, sometimes we don't have the capacity to access support. 

Grief is very personal, and everyone has their own journey through it. It's heartbreaking and so painful. I am glad you're connecting with the community here. We're all here for you. 

Whenever you feel ready, you can reach out to access some grief counselling. But until then, we're sitting with you ❤️

am safe

Hi @Fluttershy1 

I'm sorry you are going through so much at the moment.

Just take it one thing at a time hon. If you need a day at home doing nothing then so be it. Put yourself first.

Sending lots of love 💕💕

@Snowie - I’m scared to go to my supports I’m hiding in my bed, I’m exhausted. Emotions are going haywire
